I tweeked the recipe. Instead of a can of stewed tomatoes, I used tomatoes w/ green chilies,added a small onion,garlic powder, celery and mushrooms. A touch of sea salt. Delcious.

Very easy recipe to make, a little on the bland side. Added some chopped onion and garlic sauted to it and improved the taste. Used Hunts "Diced Tomatoes" and made the process even faster. Great with some crusty sourdough bread.

I thoughgt this was very bland--and I even used twice as much sausage as the recipe called for.
